I have reached the surface, but too quickly, so I had to use the dry decompression chamber. In the dry decompression chamber, I had some time to think and imagine. I really thought I saw small gas molecule floating around. Fill-in the postulates of the Kinetic Molecular Theory below.
The Postulates:
I.The total volume in which the gas is contained is mostly _____________ space. The ___________ of the gas is negligible.
II.Gas molecules are in continuous _____________ _____________ in all directions.
III.Energy is _____________ from one molecule to another, but the total energy remains _____________ at a constant temperature.
IV.Molecules of a gas neither_____________ or _____________ each other.
V.The average KE of gas particles depends only on the absolute _____________ of the gas
Now⦠Match each postulate them to the observational statements below by putting the corresponding Roman numeral in front of each statement
1) ______The gas molecules didnât really seem interested in each other
2) ______They never seemed to lose energy, no matter how many times they bumped into each other
3) ______I couldnât believe we could actually breathe, considering there seemed to be so few molecules.
4) ______They even seemed to move faster when they got nearer to me.
5)( ______The molecules seemed to have no rhyme or reason in their movements
